TO YOU, THE ARTIST...

I am on the tube inbetween Kentish town and Camden the night before my 2nd year groups London showcase. Tomorrow, they stand in front of several of the countries leading agents at a west end theatre and, well, act.

The enormity of it hits me like a sucker punch.

2 years of talk will now become action. This is very possibly the biggest opportunity some of these group members will ever have and everything will count.

Things have been pretty busy at our school, ICAT. We have had a cracking graduate production of Boeing Boeing, a busy time with our London school and a fantastic week with our course advisor, legendary theatre director Mike Alfreds.

As usual, over a season of heavy work, a pattern emerges. We begin to observe issues that weave through every class.
